We are delighted to share a glimpse into the 21st edition of the Drishti National Dance Festival- titled "Bharata Gītā" held on 24th January 2026 at Chowdiah Memorial Hall. We offer our heartfelt gratitude to every individual who was a part of this meaningful journey.

Our humble praṇāms to Padma Vibhushan Guru Dr. Padma Subrahmanyam whose sublime presentation of the Bhagavad Gītā revealed the divinity of Lord Krishna and gifted us profound life lessons through her heart touching presentation in the Bharatanrityam style.

Our gratitude to Smt Nirupama Rajendra and Sri T D Rajendra for their mesmerizing performance and their Abhinava Dance Ensemble which left the audience spellbound with their Kathak and Bharatanrityam presentation paying tribute to Nāṭyaśāstra.

Our own Drishti Dance Ensemble cherished the joy of performing alongside such distinguished artists as part of this festival paying tribute to Nāṭyaśāstra through the Bharatanrityam style.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to our Chief Guests- Padma Bhushan Shatavadhani Dr R Ganesh, Prof Srinivasa Varkhedi, Sri H N Suresh, Dr T M Manjunath and the esteemed members of the dance fraternity who joined us on the day and enriched the occasion with their august presence.

Our sincere appreciation to all the members of our collaborative team
